We are not talking about a new “Rarities” release from Jean Michel Jarre, but we are talking about some archives appeared on the Internet in the past few days.

Here we can find an unique video of Samuel Hobo singing the early Jarre tune “Zig Zag Dance”,  surrounded by  a bunch of girls dancing along the track.

And here, and thanks to Radio Equinoxe, we can find some very early and rare Jarre tracks like “Setyricon” (an early version of “Equinoxe 5″) and a fragment of the music composed by Jarre for the ballet “Dorian”.

The french label Rhino, from Warner Music, has released a compilation of film music in a 4 CD box titled “Soundtrack Maniac”. Here, among other artists as Mike Oldfield, John Barry, Ennio Morricone, etc, we can find Jean Michel Jarre with his track “Les Granges Brulees (Generique”). Here is the complete tracklist.

This box is only on sale in France and you can purchase it from amazon.fr.
